Sync a Pocket PC with Evolution 2

mhurtz1 · 08-21-2006, 09:23 PM

I have an iPAQ pocket pc and don't want to replace Windows CE with linux

And no that's not a typo, winblows is horrable for computers, but for PDAs windows works fine

Anyhow, I have synce installed and works fine for app installs and file reading and writing.
I also have multisync 0.90 installed but I can't get it to work with anything.

Thanks in advance

What have you tried?

First of all, for some reason or another, probably because I installed it via yum, their is only one plugin available "evo2-sync". And it doesn't make since to sync something to itself.

I'm sorry, I don't understand: how are you attempting to use synce to synchronise with evolution? Have you tried the advise in the synce project website?

Ok, sorry for not being clear
Evolution 1 has a plugin for multisync 8.0 and less
Evolution 2 has a plugin for multisync 9.0 and higher
synce has a plugin for multisync 8.0 and less

So as far as I can tell their is no way to sync Evolution 2 with Synce using multisync.
If this is the case I need to find another way to do so, and I'm stumped

I'm sorry, this is still not clear ... you have multisync 0.8x? Did you "Verify that MultiSync works with your version of Evolution by creating and testing a synchronization pair with the Evolution and Backup plugins"?
Section "in quotes" from: http://synce.sourceforge.net/synce/multisync_guide.php

There are other steps there - which bit dosn't work?
